ABSTRACT
This paper presents the basis of the Agile Governance in Information and Communication
Technology (ICT), which is based on Agile Software Engineering Methodologies
principles and values. Its development was done through a systematic review process,
supported by Bibliometrics and Scientometrics methods and techniques, where the Critical
Success Factors (CSF) of ICT Governance projects and the principles of the Agile
Manifesto were analyzed. Next, through an inductive approach, focused on the
convergence between the concepts involved, it was analyzed how agile principles could
help to minimize the gap between ICT and business. Evidences of their occurrence were
taken through a Conceptual Survey Research. As a result, the foundations and concepts of
